Bitcoin's unfamiliar fundamentals are a roadblock to many investors, and this extends to seemingly simple metrics like the number of Bitcoin addresses. In this second episode of our webinar series on Bitcoin fundamentals, we unpack the novel accounting method used in Bitcoin and explore how entities are represented and transact upon the network. We're joined by Philip Gradwell, chief economist at Chainalysis. In a 30-minute webinar, Philip and CoinDesk Research will walk you through the structure of Bitcoin addresses and wallets, how exchanges operate and how ownership data and transaction data can be interpreted by investors.
